SpellCast 13: Now With Holiday Filks & a Podio Play

[Heidi Tandy]

  In this festive time of year, SpellCast is bringing you a special 
holiday episode to supplement your celebrations - or help you escape 
from their stresses. With our second podcast play's debut and holiday 
filks rounding out the episode, we hope you'll find it as unforgettable 
as we do.

- We ease into the holiday spirit with an Artist's Corner as Venessa 
asks Margie (cauldroncakebkr) for tips on holiday baking.

- "Holidays and Maps" makes its fandom debut as our second podcast play. 
It will be available to read on FictionAlley  on December 25.

- As a special episode treat, the hosts review two festive fics for the 
episode: Lady Ravenclaw's " A Black Christmas " and Cedar's " One for 
Each Night ."

Along the way, listen for filks sung by Zorb, Sidney, and Venessa: - 
Zorb channels the Basilisk for " Change 'Em to Rock " by Caius Marcius; 
Sidney brings us Lavender's point of view in " Won-Won Baby " by Lilac; 
Venessa finishes with "Norbert Roasting on an Open Fire."

Whether, wherever and whatever you celebrate, we hope you're enjoying 
the holiday season. Let us know if SpellCast brought you seasonal cheer
